Okay, okay.  Ha ha.  I sincerely apologize for pooping on everyone's party,
but it's time to tell people that this whole 1/26 thing is a big ruse.
I'm not trying to be haughty or self-righteous about his sort of thing;
it's just that there are *A LOT* of people out there who are really into
Twin Peaks, and it's a big deal to them if they've missed an episode.
It's time to stop freaking them out.  I, for one, initially panicked
when I thought that I had missed an episode of my favorite show.

So, I'm going out on a limb--flame away if you like--and saying that
this whole business about a 1/26 episode is a big EKOJ!  (ie. Joke --  someone
posted a summary of the final scene of the supposed 1/26 episode,
saying that the word "EKOJ" was written in sticks--clever).

Anyway, anyone out there who is truly disappointed about missing a 1/26
episode, take heart.  Nothing was missed.

To those who participated in the hoax--kudos for your cleverness.  Ever
thought of submitting a script to Lynch/Frost (some of that stuff was
pretty good).
